Clutch Companies.

Like the title says, i need to know good performance, or good long lasting clutch companies.

im picking up an 86 s4 at the end of the month, and i know that ill be killing the clutch.. two companies i have begun to look at are LUK and SPEC. spec was reffered to me by a friend who owns an AE86, and has one in his car, he likes it.. LUK was reffered to me by the fellas at Mister Transmission.. i want to know what everyone else uses.

cheers,

Cody

I've never heard of LUK, but a I have heard great things about SPEC, it seems like a lot of the guys myself included are using the ACT clutches, it's likely the only clutch I will use.

Im using a Center force Stage 2, its awsome...no complaints. Feels just as light as a stock clutch, but holds very well

A freind of mine drag races with a Bully clutch and hes tried just about every clutch out there. He likes the Bully and says hes going to stick with it.

ACT is pretty good for street driven cars too.

Theres a place in Burlington that makes clutches called Eurodrive, I've used them with no problems either.

Mazda OEM clutches are cheap and work good......

Centerforce clutches work really good if more than stock power......

ACT street/strip with HD pressure plate seems to be the common thing people go with for the application you described.
right now i'm using a Clutch Masters stage 0 clutch as an OEM replacement and it works good, feels like stock.
most likely i will be going with the ACT though next summer.
